WHY THE LIONS WE'RE sOLD.

of Morocco to the American People.

Among the flne things that it IL claimed should

been the opinion Of the emperor OF Morocco and
The imaum OF MuScat nearly half o century ago.

such institution, at that remote date. then the
following amusing proceeding could not have
taken place in the United States Senate:
May %, 1S4O, MI Buchanan, from the commit
tee on foreign relations, reported a Joint resOlt-
ton authorizing the sale or the lion and lioness
sent 10 the President by the emperor OF Morocco
and Of the Arabian horses &C., sent by the ima,lm
Of MuScat, the proceeds to be deposited In the
public treasury, which resolution having been
referred twice and coming under consideration
Mr.. Tappan, Of Onto, moved, or suggested that
the proceeds should, in some form or other be re-
turned TO the donors.
Mr.. Buchanan stated that the consul at Morocco
had peremptorfly refused the emperor's present
VINO told him that the refusal would have cost
hun his head If he (the emperor were President OF
the United States The lions were afterward sent
10 the house OF the consul who. still refusing the
nephew OF the emperor, who brought them said he
must either leave them or lose his head. and he
would therefore turn them loose; and, ON his pro
ceeding TO do so the consul received them.
The Imaum OF Muscat, on being told that the
President could not receive bis presents, said he
would send them to Congress; and when told that
they could not receive them, he asked who ruled
accordingly sent them ''to the grand sultaps OF
the United States, the people" Mr. B. hoped, under
the circumstances, that the resolution would be
allowed to pass Mr.. Young, OF Illinois, suggested
the propr1ety OF giving them TO some ms tItution
But the resolution was adopted.

Of dyspepsia, but they are too often taken when
secrctions occasion finally weakening Of the
organs OF digestion which is extremely dif11cult to
relieve.
